If your beloved club was to be bought out by an bajillionaire, would it be better to spend insane
transfer fees on a number of players or bring in a coaching staff that could make the West Ham
reserves play like Milan's Dream Team of the late 80's and early 90's. So why not build [...]
Alexandre Pato is barely 18 years of age but he is already being touted as the Savior of AC Milan
this season. The Brazilian international youth team player was signed by the Italian giants in the
summer for £15.4million from Internacional but couldn't assimilate the player till now since
Italian football regulations bar non-EU players [.
Le Boss speaks several languages in fluent tongue but if reports in Italy are to go by then he
better get Italian added to his forte!
Apparently AC Milan are lining up Arsene Wenger as a potential replacement for boss Carlo Ancelotti
after yet another poor start to the Serie A season for the Rossoneri.
I read that GianFranco Zola who is currently on PierLuigi'Casiraghi's under 20 staff with the
Italian under twenty's would love a return to Chelsea.When asked if it could be in a managerial
role he said absolutely but only until he improved his craft.Its no wonder he so likable.His
modesty is one of his charms.

Do you have an incredible amount of free time on your hands? Do you not care if you ever [insert
verb of your choice here] a girlfriend? Are you indifferent about bathing frequently? If so, then
pay attention: Football Manager, the game which allows you to pretend you're Rafa Benitez, Carlo
Ancelotti or The Voyeur, [.
AC Milan have sensationally lined up Arsene Wenger as their new boss, according to reports from
Italy. National daily Il Giorno is suggesting that Carlo Ancelotti's reign at the San Siro could be
up after the team endured yet another poor start to the season. And the Milan-based newspaper
claims that the Serie A club have been [.
Three Golden Balls on the field: Kaká, Ronaldinho, Shevchenko. Was it enough for AC Milan to
turn their catastrophic pre-season and Serie A debut around? Alas, all Rossoneri supporters already
know the answer to that question. Once again, Ancelotti's team blanked out against
"moderate" (on paper) opposition, and notice I say "on paper" because on the [.
AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti has praised Arsenal in high terms after the Gunners pulled off an
unlikely 2-0 victory at the San Siro on Tuesday night in the UEFA Champions League to progress to
the last 8 of the competition. Ancelotti says that Arsenal deserved to go through: Arsenal are a
strong team and played with [.
Sunday was a sad day for Italian soccer, as one of the most charismatic club presidents of Serie A
passed away. In things of this nature there is no club distinction: we are all bound by the same
love for the beautiful game, and when one of us leaves the family it's always a sad

Good operation for Italy on Matchday 1 of the UEFA Cup Group Stage. Indeed, out of the three Serie
A teams still left in the competition, all of AC Milan, Udinese, and Sampdoria were victorious,
achieving wins over Heerenveen (3-1), Tottenham (2-0), and Partizan Belgrade (2-1) respectively.
Not only that, but Thursday night was special [.
After triple and double wins on Matchday 1 and Matchday 2, the Serie A wave of success came to an
halt in the UEFA Cup Group Stage. With Udinese taking a break this round, both AC Milan and
Sampdoria couldn't do better than 2-2 and 1-1 draws vs. Portsmouth and Stuttgart on Thursday.
However, while the [.
Carlo Ancelotti has a plan for December. His plan is to catch up to Inter before the Christmas
break, so that his team can go on holiday with a good psychological advantage. After the events on
Sunday evening, it seems like Carlo should think of a "plan B". AC Milan got litterally
trampled on Sunday, [.
"Anti-Inter". A big phrase for Italian newspapers this week-end, as indeed Sunday's
Juventus vs. AC Milan presented itself as a revealing showdwown. One to determine the Nerazzurri's
real contender for the Scudetto race, one to decide historical bragging rights between two teams
who, in the past two decades, have won more Serie A champions titles [.
In Italy, they believe that when it comes to football, more than half the battle is won off the
pitch and AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti is using that principle with glee. On Saturday, the
Gunners were beaten 4-0 by Manchester United at Old Trafford and AC Milan boss is visibly glad of
the fact. Milan [.
Earlier today, Sky Sports reported that Chelsea were holding talks with representatives for
current AC Milan manager, and Chelsea top target, Carlo Ancelotti. Now, the outlet says a deal
between the two has been agreed. Whoa.
The next step, obviously, would be for Chelsea to agree a deal with Milan over a move.
Well, well, well... LONDON (AFP) - Chelsea have agreed a deal with Carlo Ancelotti's
representatives for the AC Milan coach to take charge at Stamford Bridge, according to reports on
Tuesday. The Champions League finalists have stepped up their search for a successor to Avram
Grant, who was sacked last month, and Sky Sports News claimed talks [.
Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor has today admitted he is eager for a move away from the club,
with rumoured interest from AC Milan. The Gunners top scorer last season, is just one of many
players in the Arsenal ranks who have or want to leave the club this summer. (Daily Telegraph)
Adebayor, 24, joined the club back in 2006 from French side Monaco.
Barcelona are today planning to hijack AC Milan's bid to sign Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor.
The Togo international has reportedly told Arsene Wenger he wants to leave the Emirates this summer
following the failure to win any trophies last season. (Gazzetta Dello Sport)
The former Monaco striker has attracted the interests of both Carlo Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola
with his terrific performances for the Gunners this season.
Pre-register at the NEW football site 11×2 today! Manchester City next pre season match is a
friendly against Italian giants AC Milan at the City of Manchester Stadium on Saturday at
18.15. AC Milan has finaly landed Ronaldinho and were also linked to Gunners striker
Emmanuel Adebayor. Manager Carlo Ancelotti hopes that his squad this season can challenge [.
Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso has today been linked with a £15 million move to Italian
giants AC Milan. The Spanish international has been linked with a move away from Anfield all summer
after it was claimed Benitez had to offload Alonso to fund a move for Gareth Barry.
Alonso was close to joining Juventus earlier in the summer but Liverpool asked for too much, with
Juve only prepared to pay £12 million.
Completing the Italian "Triangolare" August bonanza, the Trofeo Birra Moretti took place
on Thursday evening, featuring past and present Serie A contenders such as Juventus, AC Milan, and
Napoli. Following the Trofeo TIM, this was the last "big" pre-season tournament before
the beginning (finally!) of Serie A.
Serie A Talk readers have probably noticed the headline change but I've changed more than that.
After some deliberation I trashed the first post on 'Shevchenko's Triumphant Return' as Andriy
hasn't been triumphant since leaving Milan and it looked likely he wasn't going to find an
opening to return or showed a desire to do so [.
Goal.com reports that the International Federation of Football History and Statistics has
acknowledged Carlo Ancelotti as the best coach of 2007. As if anyone else came within a close
range! Ancelotti managed AC Milan to UEFA Champions League triumph last season and also won the
UEFA Super Cup and the World Club Cup.
About 10 minutes after posting this entry, I went to The Guardian's website and saw this:
"Ancelotti denies Chelsea Link" ...mmhmm. We'll see.
This is weird and Sky has some explaining to do. After this morning's reports, revealing that AC
Milan manager Carlo Ancelotti's representatives had reached an agreement with Chelsea, we now have
been told that's a load of crock.
The Milan club released a statement denying the rumor. Ancelotti spoke out as well.
Two candidates down, plenty to go for the west London club, after Luciano Spalletti has decided to
stick with Roma instead of taking charge at the madhouse that is Stamford Bridge. The Daily Mirror
reports that the Italian has rejected the opportunity to replace Avram Grant, days after Carlo
Ancelotti also shunned Kenyon & Co [.
Chelsea have named current Portugal boss Luiz Felipe Scolari as their new manager after the sacking of Avram Grant. He will take over at the end of Euro 2008 on 1st July as his contract with Portugal is due to run out on the day of the Euro 2008 final, 29th June.
Scolari certainly has an impressive CV having won the 2002 World Cup with Brazil and taking Portugal to the final of Euro 2004.
AC Milan silenced at San Siro, the party for the thousands of Rossoneri fans ruined, all gathered
to see Ronaldinho in action. There just is something that still isn't working in Carlo Ancelotti's
team... The star on the field today was undoubtedly the Brazilian nº80, but in the end Bologna
were the real victors, walking away [.
By way of a complement to our weekly look at German football called Bundesbag, we're going to be
regularly updating you on the other leagues vying for your attention around Europe and indeed the
world at large.
This week, we're checking out the first weekend of action in Serie A, and we begin with reigning
champions Inter who were playing away to Sampdoria on Saturday.
All of Carlo Ancelotti's high powered summer acquisitions were on display. Flamini, Ronaldinho,
and Sheva started for Milan but they ran out of gas as a lively Genoa team ran their legs off.
Genoa won through Sciulli and Milito's PK in stoppage time. This is Milan's second loss and
Ancelotti must be second guessing his high priced transfer choices.
You know it's funny: it seems that whenever AC Milan are in trouble, all they need to lift their
spirits is a little Lazio "rejuvenation cure". Just around the same time last year, the
Rossoneri had just played an abysmal UEFA Champions League match against Celtic Glasgow (in which
Dida infamously faked being mortally hit [.
Or should I say... R80? Either way ladies & gentlemen, Ronaldinho could not have picked a better
day to score the first Serie A goal of his AC Milan career. With the first edition of 2008-09's
"Derby della Madonnina", the Rossoneri have struck a big blow to Inter and José
Mourinho's big "confidence plan".
AC Milan's stay on top of Serie A standings lasted merely a week, as the Rossoneri drew 1-1 away to
Lecce, the home side making use of the one thing that still continues to be the bane of Carlo
Ancelotti's team: defending set pieces. The 93rd minute goal scored by the Giallorossi, after Milan
had [.
It's well documented that "Big Phil" Scolari has been opening his big mouth a bit too
much when telling Ronaldo that in his opinion, the player should join Real Madrid. Scolari is of
course entitled to his opinion, but the fact that he is now the Chelsea manager in waiting has
added another dimension to the already bitter 'war of words' that has erupted between United and
Real Madrid.
Un solo coro è bastato per accendere un vulcano che si era soltanto addormentato. Il coro
arriva dalla Curva juventina e a Carlo Ancelotti ricorda tempi difficili: due scudetti persi per un
soffio e un'etichetta pesante quanto ingiusta, quella di eterno secondo. L'urlo è becero e
dirompente: «Un maiale non può allenare», la reazione è istintiva, immediata.
Carlo Ancelotti will not be a happy man. Neither will Milan Vice President Adriano Galliani after
the Rossoneri were thrashed 5-0 by Chelsea in the Russian Railways Cup. The game was an effective
third place playoff after Chelsea and Milan had lost to Lokomotiv Moscow and Sevilla respectively.
Nicolas Anelka scored four goals and Frank Lampard [.
Another name has been added to the list of suitors for Xabi Alonso, as AC Milan have now been
linked with the Liverpool midfielder.
Alonso's future has been up in the air all summer long, as the Reds' pursuit of Gareth Barry was
expected to signal the end of the Spaniard's stay at Anfield.
Carlo Ancelotti bana hep kaypak bir karakter olarak gelir. Herkese 'he' diyen, etliye
sütlüye karışmayan bir adam sanki. Milan bu sene lige iki mağlubiyetle
başlayınca bu hafta bileti kesilir artık diye düşünürken gelen
haberler İtalyan teknik adamın direkten döndüğünü yazıyor.
Üstelik Galliani gönderilmesini isterken, sportif direktör Leonardo istifaya
karşı çıkmış.
Reading such an illustrious name of AC Milan in the UEFA Cup clearly signals a time of
underachievement and ‘crisis', but even as the situation stands it has to be said that the
task of pushing aside Zurich is a simple job. The UEFA Cup can act as a relief for Carlo Ancelotti
as it temporarily removes the domestic pressures which are currently exposing him.
